"The guys were brilliant! Great communication beforehand and very accommodating with requests. Arrived on time and set up. Flexible as needed to fit in with speeches etc. Made a great night! I definitely recommend Blag for a wonderful band. Thanks guys! Mike"

"Thank you for the most romantic and Scottish first dance and for your ceilidh. Tricia was great when calling the dances and explaining us what to do. We all had lots of fun. You also managed to make my dad dance, who ususally never does! I was truly amazed to see him on the dance floor. With your wonderful music you made the evening even more special and you created wonderful memories that we will bring forever in our hearts. I truly wish to meet you again and dance at the rythm of your wonderful Scottish music. I have purchased your disc in ITunes as I am in love with your songs! "

"We had a couples dinner for Valentines Day and we booked the duo which was the perfect entertainment while we had dinner and a fun games night. The band were open to my ideas and flexible, helped me plan and learnt new songs for the evening. I really enjoyed their energy they gave and they helped an intimate evening feel energetic, fun and we will always remember the special evening. Would highly recommend and will be looking to book them for other events! Thanks guys..."

"It was lovely to see you last evening and to hear your brilliant band! Hearing live music played so well was a real treat after the last 2 years. Tom was as fantastic as ever guiding us through the dances and he always makes it so much fun. Everyone had a great time and they didn’t want to go home!"

"I must be honest I had never been involved in finding and/or booking a band for an event, so this was a first for me - and it was my dad's 60th so I really wanted something special. Joubert and his wife (who seemed to be in charge of the Sound Engineering side of things) were very accommodating and there were little-no issues. The sound quality was great - his voice is great - and no request seemed too much to ask (they did everything with a smile on their faces). We tried to give as many song requests to them at least a week before the time as possible - and they seemed very appreciative of that. They did go the extra mile in the sense that the party actually only seemed to kick off when they were supposed to wind things up - but they volunteered to stay for longer just before my dad asked me if they could, and so they did. The event turned out to be a big success and I wanted to thank Joubert and Juanita for the vibe they injected into a special day for us as a family. Dankie julle"

"Annasach played for our wedding in June 2018 near Livingston, where most of the guests were not regular ceilidh goers but almost all got up to give it a go! Thanks to the team for the rousing tunes and good calling, which made even the novices feel that they could join in the fun. We loved Auld Lang Syne at the end too - a brilliant end to our special day. Annasach were easy to deal with and professional from the beginning, we would definitely recommend them to others looking for a ceilidh band for their event. We look forward to attending one of their public ceilidhs again soon!"

"We had an excellent time dancing the evening away with The Barnbuskers! Such a great band and the caller made the dances simple and fun to follow for our youngest to the oldest! The dance floor was full all evening. Thank you so much."

"Review received on 8/7/2025 Best of the best! We can’t say enough great things about Blue Jersey Band! Our residents absolutely loved them—their energy, enthusiasm, and friendly nature truly made the event special. This dynamic duo went above and beyond to make sure everyone was having a great time, engaging with residents and working hard behind the scenes to ensure everything ran smoothly. Their dedication and positive attitude didn’t go unnoticed, and we’ve already received so many compliments thanks to their efforts. We would welcome them back in a heartbeat!

"Annasach played our wedding and despite having a bunch of amateurs attempting it they kept their spirits up. I honestly couldn’t have hoped for a nicer, better, happier band to break the ice between two cultures. Would definitely book you all again and recommend you. Thank you so much again for making our evening special."
